Advanced Gum Treatment

Advanced Gum Treatment 2-5VISITS/3-6 MONTHS

Gum diseases, also called periodontal diseases, are infectious conditions affecting the tooth supporting tissues. These conditions primarily impact the gums, but can also damage the underlying bone.

The most common form is gingivitis. This leads to gum inflammation, causing redness and bleeding when brushing.

um diseases usually arise from an excess of bacteria, which often occurs due to irregular oral hygiene practices. In some rare cases it is seen to develop without the presence of predisposing factors. This eventually leads to plaque buildup. Although bacterial infections are the main cause, several other factors can also play a role, such as

Viral or fungal infections
Hormonal changes
Certain medications
Nutritional deficiencies

Keeping your gums healthy is vital for your overall oral and general well-being. By understanding gum diseases and taking proactive measures, you can help safeguard your teeth in the long run.

Signs of Gum Disease

While healthy gums should appear pink and firm, gum disease may present with the following symptoms

Red and swollen gums
Bleeding when brushing or flossing
Receding gum line
Increased tooth mobility
Gum tenderness, especially when eating or chewing
Persistent bad breath
Pus discharge
Development of new spaces between teeth

This non-surgical deep cleaning process removes plaque, bacterial toxins, and tartar deposits from your teeth.

Incision and Drainage

Addressing gum abscesses caused by infection, this procedure involves draining pus that has collected between the teeth and gums.

Open Flap Debridement

For severe periodontitis, this surgery reaches deep below the gum pockets to eliminate harmful plaque and calculus, promoting gum health.
